Assigning a classifying space to a fusion system up to F-isomorphism

Complementing and extending the Inventiones work of Benson, Grodal, Henke [Group cohomology and control of p-fusion, Invent. Math. 197 (2014), 491--507] we give criteria for a space to have cohomology (strongly) F-isomorphic in the sense of Quillen to the stable elements. We extend results about groups models to fusion systems over discrete $p$-toral groups and profinite groups and provide various applications to the Kan-Thurston Theorem.

A few examples of $p$-good and $p$-bad classifying spaces

We give examples of spaces which are good and bad at different primes in the sense of Bousfield and Kan in any arbitrary combination and investigate which impact the existence of a Sylow $p$-subgroup has on the homotopy type on the classifying space and under which conditions the homotopy type of wedges of classifying spaces is good or bad for a solid ring $R$. We give results relating to various other $R$-homological structures and a collection of examples.

Signalizer functors, existence, and applications to the fundamental group

We solve the seventh problem of Oliver's list [M.\ Aschbacher, R.\ Kessar, B.\ Oliver, \textit{Fusion systems in algebra and topology}, LMS Lecture Note Series: 31, Cambridge University Press, 2011] via an explicit signalizer functor construction in the sense of Aschbacher-Chermak for various group models. Moreover we prove the existence of centric linking systems via group models in certain cases which is the first problem and give applications to the fundamental group which is the eighth problem of the list respectively. We illustrate with many examples.

The Free Loop Space Homology of $(n-1)$-connected $2n$-manifolds

Our goal in this paper is to compute the integral free loop space homology of $(n-1)$-connected $2n$-manifolds $M$, $n\geq 2$. We do this when $n\neq 2,4,8$, or when $n\neq 2$ and $\tilde H^*(M)$ has trivial cup product squares, though the techniques used here should extend to a much wider range of manifolds. We also give partial information concerning the action of the Batalin-Vilkovisky operator.

Group models for fusion systems

We study group models for fusion systems and construct homology decompositions for the models of Robinson and Leary-Stancu type.

Loop homology of spheres and complex projective spaces

In his Inventiones paper, Ziller (Invent. Math: 1-22, 1977) computed the integral homology as a graded abelian group of the free loop space of compact, globally symmetric spaces of rank 1. Chas and Sullivan (String Topology, 1999)showed that the homology of the free loop space of a compact closed orientable manifold can be equipped with a loop product and a BV-operator making it a Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra. Cohen, Jones and Yan (The loop homology algebra of spheres and projective spaces, 2004) developed a spectral sequence which converges to the loop homology as a spectral sequence of algebras. They computed the algebra structure of the loop homology of spheres and complex projective spaces by using Ziller's results and the method of Brown-Shih (Ann. of Math. 69:223-246, 1959, Publ. Math. Inst. Hautes Études Sci. 3: 93-176, 1962). In this note we compute the loop homology algebra by using only spectral sequences and the technique of universal examples. We therefore not only obtain Zillers' and Brown-Shihs' results in an elementary way, we also replace the roundabout computations of Cohen, Jones and Yan (The loop homology algebra of spheres and projective spaces, 2004) making them independent of Ziller's and Brown-Shihs' work. Moreover we offer an elementary technique which we expect can easily be generalized and applied to a wider family of spaces, not only the globally symmetric ones.

On the cohomology of the free loop space of a complex projective space

Let $Λ(\mathbb{C}P^n)$ denote the free loop space of the complex projective space $\mathbb{C}P^n$, i. e. $\mathbb{C}P^n$ is the projective space of the vector space $\mathbb{C}^{n+1}$ of dimension $n+1$ over the complex numbers $\mathbb{C}$ and $Λ(\mathbb{C}P^n)$ is the function space $\mathrm{map}(S^1,\mathbb{C}P^n)$ of unbased maps from a circle $S^1$ into $\mathbb{C}P^n$ topologized with the compact open topology. In this note we show that despite the fact that the natural fibration $Ω(\mathbb{C}P^n)\hookrightarrow Λ(\mathbb{C}P^n)\stackrel{eval}{\longrightarrow}\mathbb{C}P^n$ has a cross section its Serre spectral sequence does not collapse: Here $eval$ is the evaluation map at a base point * $\in \mathbb{C}P^n$.

Loop space homology associated to the mod 2 Dickson invariants

The spaces BG_2 and BDI(4) have the property that their mod 2 cohomology is given by the rank 3 and 4 Dickson invariants respectively. Associated with these spaces one has for q odd the classifying spaces of the finite groups BG_2(q)and the exotic family of classifying spaces of 2-local finite groups BSol(q). In this article compute the mod 2 loop space homology of the 2-completed classifying space of G_2(q) and of BSol(q) for all odd primes q, as algebras over the Steenrod algebra, and the associated Bockstein spectral sequences.

Homology decompositions and groups inducing fusion systems

We relate the construction of groups which realize saturated fusion systems and signaliser functors with homology decompositions of p-local finite groups. We prove that the cohomology ring of Robinson's construction is in some precise sense very close to the cohomology ring of the fusion system it realizes.
